Calls for nationwide roll-out of drug consumption centres

A doctor, youth worker, politician and former top cop have united to call for medically supervised drug usage centres in all major Australian cities as a way to stem the nation's ice epidemic.

Australia's only medically supervised injecting centre in Sydney's Kings Cross is about to record its millionth injection.

Despite being established to support heroin addicts, 80,000 of those injections are believed to have been by crystal meth users.

While there are no definite plans, areas being touted include: Fortitude Valley and Caboolture in Brisbane; Liverpool in Sydney's southwest; St Kilda and Frankston in Melbourne; Elizabeth in Adelaide; and Northbridge in Perth.

Youth worker Matt Noffs, of the Ted Noffs Foundation, says research coming out of there shows the benefits outweigh the stigma associated with such centres.

"All of the evidence, with over 130 papers on a hundred of these centres around the world, show a vast decrease in crime, an increase in community safety, a decrease in drug use and people getting into treatment," Mr Noffs told A Current Affair.

"As Germans do, they're very good... They've got the brains of engineers and that's what they've done. They've scaled these and they've seen that reduction in crime and that reduction in drug use. And I think we should be doing the same thing."

Australian Drug Law Reform Foundation president Dr Alex Wodak says that despite spending a fortune on law enforcement, it hasn't helped the nation's drug problem.

"We would reduce a lot of the violence in the community that's associated with ice. We would be able to contain that and deal with it much better," Dr Wodak said.

"If the users are injecting in the supermarket or park, then the community cops the problem without the skilled health workers to contain it."

Last year, the Tasmanian senator famously spoke publicly about her desperation to help her then 21-year-old son recover from his ice addiction.

She too supports the move for drug consumption centres.

"Allowing these people just to roam around the streets and the havoc that they're causing is not the answer," Senator Lambie said.

"If this is staffed properly, and it has the right people in these centres, and we can convince those people that have been taking ice to go and get help. Well you know what, that's got to be a better start to a better way forward to being able to deal with this matter."

Former Australian Federal Police commissioner Mick Palmer points to the success of the Kings Cross injecting room as a reason for supporting ice consumption centres.

"The evidence certainly suggests that rehabilitation has improved, user levels in some cases actually drop, people are certainly given much better options and much better advice about the dangers involved and the habits they currently have," Mr Palmer said.

"The dimensions of ice, the problems, the public problems being created by the fear of behaviour caused by ice is a damn good reason why we should really think about this."
